Analyse the significance during the Three Kingdoms reign in China. The Three Kingdom period consists of the Kingdom of Wei, Kingdom of Shu and Kingdom of Wu. As a single dynasty, the Three Kingdoms Period originated in 220 AD when the Kingdom of Wei replaced the Eastern Han Dynasty which took place in 25 AD-220 AD. The Three Kingdom dynasty ended at 280 AD when the Kingdom of Wu was defeated by the Court of Jin. It is considered to be a special historical period full of power struggles and sophisticated military strategies, which some methods are still used today in modern warfare. Much can be said to justify their significance during their existence and their affects towards China during their reign. Religion would be one of the factors that contributed in China throughout this period. Buddhism had already arrived in China in the mid of Han Dynasty and brought up of its first congregation in southern China at the court of Prince of Chu. Buddhism was originally introduced in China with the development of the Silk Road when monks travelled with merchants. There was a need amongst the population for a belief with spiritual meanings. Hence, Buddhism took roots in China during this era. This religion was unique from other religions during the time. This new religion covered all people rich or poor, Chinese or not. Buddhist temples were constructed within the three kingdoms and thus millions of Chinese converted into Buddhism and which affected China greatly. Majority of the population in China were Buddhists. Till this day, Buddhism is recognised greatly. Architecture found new challenges in the construction of Buddhist pagodas and temples and in the monastery grottoes in the north. The Yungang cave temples are evident that Temples existed and were built during the Three Kingdoms reign. Archaeologist proved that these temples were built during the time because of the unearthed relics found on the site of these temples which dated back to the Three Kingdom...

Continuity and Change Over Time Essays
A CCOT question is similar to a comparative one, the key difference being instead of comparing between two places during the same time, one is comparing between two times, often in the same place.
The structure for a CCOT thesis is simpler than for a comparative thesis, but shares the following elements:
1. It is clear – it clearly responds to the question and is on topic.
2. It is comprehensive – it addresses the whole prompt, and
3. It is analytical – it establishes clear categories of “continuity” versus “change”.
Compositionally, a CCOT essay is simpler than that of a comparative essay. Your overall structure will look something like this:
I. Thesis that identifies continuities versus changes
II. Topic sentence (sub-argument) that identifies a CHANGE
III. Topic sentence (sub-argument) that identifies another CHANGE
IV. Topic sentence (sub-argument) that identifies a CONTINUITY.
V. Conclusion the identifies the global context and patterns of the changes in your thesis.
You will, of course, offer evidence within each evidentiary paragraph.
Evidentiary paragraphs should be structured as follows:
I. Topic Sentence arguing for a Continuity or Change
II. Evidence supporting the continuity or change (specific example)
III. Evidence supporting the continuity or change (specific example)
IV. Commentary/Analysis that addresses causes...

...The Han and Roman empires have their fair share of technological advancements, how each civilization reacts to them is different however. Since the beginning of time we as humans have always needed to advance but not every human being believed so. In the Han and Roman empires, as in many others, the attitudes towards these kinds of advancements were mostly positive but there were some negative outlooks.
In the Han dynasty many of the advancements were dedicated towards water and flooding. In document 1, a Han government official clearly agrees that new flood prevention techniques must be created and people who are able to carry out the repairs should be appointed to oversee the production of these flood preventing walls. Huan Tan, a upper-class philosopher, has a positive outlook on agricultural advancements because of Emperor Fuxi. He believes that instead of using human body strength to plow fields, the use of animals such as oxen, and horses should be used in replace so more work could be accomplished. In the pages of a government-sponsored history of Han China, the attitudes towards technology are, again, towards agricultural improvements. A governor by the name of Tu Shih invented a “water-powered blowing-engine” for the casting of iron agricultural equipment so that people could receive a great benefit for a small amount of labor. Since the people writing the documents are upper-classmen and involved in the government, some of these opinions and outlooks may be...

...development of the “ThreeKingdoms”
The social and cultural development of the “ThreeKingdoms”
The ThreeKingdoms were founded after the fall of Gojoseon, and gradually conquered and absorbed various other small states and confederacies. The ThreeKingdoms period ran from 57 AD until Silla's triumph over Koguryo in 668,[1] which marked the beginning of the North and South States period (남북국시대) of Unified Silla in the South and Balhae in the North. The ThreeKingdoms of Korea(삼국시대) refer to the ancient Korean kingdoms of Goguryeo, Paekche and Silla, which dominated the Korean peninsula and parts of Manchuria for much of the 1st millennium.
I think it is very interesting that in ancient China also had a period named “threekingdoms”. But we all known, it’s totally different with the “ThreeKingdoms” in Korea. China would be Sui and Tang dynasties when Korea was in the period of “ThreeKingdoms”. In the Chinese history, Sui and Tang dynasties had been the most prosperity period. Sui and Tang dynasties had a strong influence in Asia; the relationship of the ThreeKingdoms with China presented a complex situation. On one hand, the three...

...Discussion Question #4
The first time I read the poem, the first thing that went through my mind was Zhou Yu was courting or asking a girl for her hand in marriage. Since Zhou Yu served as the state’s general and military strategist, it only seemed fair that he was to be wed with a girl whom has royal blood. After reading a few history books in the De La Salle Library, I take back my previous impressions on the poem.
After reading a book about early Chinese history, it gave me a whole new perspective of this poem. During those times, China was in a civil war. There were three states that tried to break free from the government and succeeded. Later on, they established 3 separate states: Wei, Shu Han and Wu. Among these three, Zhou Yu was the general and strategist of the Wu or South China. The battle of Red Cliffs happened during the winter time of the year AD 208. This explains the “window of snow” in Li Tuan’s poem. The reason why the woman was touching a wrong note occasionally was because the setting of the poem was during the Battle of Red Cliff, which made her very anxious as to the huge possibility that this would be the last time they could ever be together. The tone symbolizes the feeling of the girl; a bit nerve-wracking. Zhou Yu is about to be sent to the battlegrounds and his wife would be left helpless at home.
Having just read a couple of books, I have completely changed my position on the main story of the poem. At first,...

Jumong was son of Hae Mo su (the son of heaven) and Yuhwa- the queen of Geumwa Wang. Hae mo su fell in love with Yuhwa but they somehow couldn’t maintain their relationship. But, Yuhwa gave the birth to a giant egg under sunlight exposure, which turned out to be Jumong later.
